Good Hair colorI prefer to color my hair at home as salons are very expensive. I have always used Loreal Excellence Creme Natural Black 3 and i am happy with this. Loreal hair colors are of good quality product and the price is also reasonable. This product gives good coverage & the color stays for longer. A good product. !!!!

Salon color at homeI only use L’Oréal and I finally discovered Excellence color 5AB after calling customer service and requesting help. I was using Dark ash brown but it made my hair too dark. Then I used Dark brown and moved to a lighter color Medium Brown; but, due to my own natural pigment, my gray turned a little reddish.
So, the L’Oréal representative told me to use 5AB and my hair looks GORGEOUS!!!!!

So easy!This was my first time coloring my hair and it was so easy to do. The color was a perfect match (medium brown) and it made my hair feel conditioner. Highly recommend!

Been using Medium Golden Brown for years and am brand loyal to L&rsquo;Or&eacute;al Excellence. &nbsp;Want to use amazon dash but Amazon doesn&rsquo;t carry this color. &nbsp;they carry 6g or 6n - which would you suggest. &nbsp;I am 71, Medium complexion, and just do roots to cover gray

Asked by: Bug Kopke

Hi Bug Kopke! Thank you for using Excellence Creme #5G, Medium Golden Brown. Shade #6G, Light Golden Brown, is lighter, so if you are going for a lighter shade, it's fine to go with #6G. If you are not looking to use a lighter shade you'll have to stay with #5G, Medium Golden Brown. We hope this information is helpful!

I have naturally dark blond hair at the roots that has light blond salon highlights. I just did a box of 02 extra light natural blond and I am not happy with the brassy results at the root. How soon until I can re-color, want light/not brassy

I just found a VERY OLD looking box of L'Oreal Excellence Creme 5G Medium Golden Brown Hair Color. WHERE CAN I FIND THE EXPIRATION DATE?

Asked by: Nonna1

Hi there! Our haircolor products do not have expiration dates because they do not expire. Our products have been tested to have at least a 3-year shelf life if unopened and stored at normal room temperature, during which they will retain their integrity and perform as expected. If your product looks and smells the way it normally does, it is good to use. We hope this helps!
